Plush Cushioning. Powerful Toe-Offs. Effortless Everyday Comfort.

The Brooks Glycerin 23 Men’s delivers a luxuriously soft and responsive ride for runners who prioritise comfort across every kilometre. Designed for daily running, long runs and steady training, it combines premium cushioning with smooth, stable transitions.

Nitrogen-infused DNA TUNED cushioning uses differently sized cells through the midsole to create a tuned underfoot experience. Larger cells in the heel provide soft, airy landings, while smaller cells through the forefoot deliver a more responsive feel during toe-off.

Brooks has added an additional 2mm of cushioning through the forefoot, providing greater protection and softness beneath the front of the foot. A wide platform works with the tuned heel and forefoot cushioning to create smooth and steady transitions throughout each stride.

The updated engineered knit upper offers a soft, breathable and accommodating fit. It comfortably wraps around the foot while providing enough structure to maintain a secure feel during daily runs and longer sessions.

Cushioning and ride

The Glycerin 23 uses dual-cell DNA TUNED cushioning to provide softness and responsiveness within one seamless midsole. Larger nitrogen-infused cells beneath the heel help soften impact, while smaller cells through the forefoot create a more energetic sensation as the foot moves towards toe-off.

Its wide platform and tuned cushioning help provide smooth, steady transitions without the traditional GuideRails™ support system found in the Glycerin GTS 23. This makes the standard Glycerin 23 the neutral option within the range.

Fit and feel

The men’s standard D width provides an accommodating fit with a secure heel and comfortable space through the forefoot. Its updated engineered knit upper combines breathable softness with enough structure to hold the foot comfortably in place.

The Glycerin 23 may suit runners who want a softer and more luxurious feel than the Brooks Ghost 18 while retaining a smooth, versatile ride for daily and longer-distance running.
